A series of violent crimes against Asian seniors in the Bay Area have sparked concern and calls to action, and a coalition of community groups organized public gatherings in San Francisco and Oakland this weekend to emphasize the need for additional resources and services to advance public safety. Lai Wa Wu, policy and alliance director at the Chinese Progressive Association, and Sara Wan, executive director of Community Youth Center, explain how community based groups have been responding to violence.
